Drive your own husky sled near Tromsø, meet 130 Alaskan huskies, and warm up with hot chocolate and cake in a Sami lavvo.

“This was by far the best activity we did in Tromso. When we arrived the dogs were all super excited to see us. We were allowed to play with them for a bit before getting in our sleds. They provided warm outer wear so we were not cold. Sledding through the beautiful mountains was amazing. Spectacular and fun. The owner was great and provided us with warm drinks and cake after and told us all about the huskies. It’s definitely worth the money and a must do in Tromso.”

Review of Tromsø dog sledding with self-drive huskies, Lyngen Alps views, warm gear, Sami tent treats, and practical booking tips.

“The activity itself was excellent. We had a bad start where there were too many activities being organised at once at the bus shelter with not enough buses. We were told to wait inside, then after a while I went back outside to follow up and they removed a whole group off a bus and put our group on it. We left about 25 minutes later than the start time after everyone arrived 15 minutes earlier as instructed. However once we left, the driver was lovely and once we arrived for the activity all was forgotten. As an animal lover, I am always worried about booking activities like this incase…”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 746 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $362Top rated

Drive your own husky sled near Tromsø, meet 130 Alaskan Huskies, and warm up with cake and hot drinks in a cozy lavvu.

“My daughter and I did this self-drive husky dog sledding experience about 35 minutes from Tromsø, in the hills of the neighbouring island. Despite windy and snowy conditions, the activity was very well organised and great fun. We started sledding at 14:00, which meant sledding in the dark using headlamps. While this was still enjoyable, I would recommend going during the twilight hours (around 09:30–14:30) and hoping for clear weather to better appreciate the beautiful surrounding landscape. The huskies appeared well cared for, energetic, and clearly loved to run. The owners are passionate and attentive to the dogs’ wellbeing and daily exercise needs. Overall, a memorable and enjoyable Arcti...”

“Just back from our Husky powered sled ride in Alta with Stengelsen Husky. What a truly fantastic experience, which completed exceeded our expectations! We were collected from the cruise port, just 2 couples, and taken to the house and Kennels. We changed into the warm coverall and boots provided which kept us warm and well protected. We had time meeting and petting the dogs, who all seemed very well looked after and very friendly, not the biggest kennel in the area but must be one of the best tours as each couple had its own sled and dog team. After some clear instructions we set out on the trail following…”
